Precautions for a new Lavida include: 1. The car needs to warm up after starting; 2. Avoid overloading; 3. Do not drive long distances or at high speeds; 4. Use high-quality fuel; 5. Shift gears in a timely manner; 6. Do not slam on the brakes during the break-in period; 7. Avoid frequent use of emergency braking. Additional information: 1. The Lavida is a compact car with body dimensions of 4670mm in length, 1806mm in width, 1474mm in height, a wheelbase of 2688mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 51 liters. 2.

I just picked up my new Volkswagen Lavida and I'm super excited, but I need to pay attention to the break-in period. For the first 1,500 kilometers, drive gently and don't exceed 100 km/h to avoid engine damage; also, avoid loading too much heavy stuff for trips, as the tires and suspension won't handle it well. Warm up the engine for a few dozen seconds when starting, and don't turn the AC to max immediately—wait until the engine is running before using it to protect the battery and compressor. Don't fill up the tank completely when refueling; leave some space to prevent expansion. Avoid wiping the paint with rough cloths—use a soft cloth dampened with water to gently clean it. The Lavida's steering wheel is quite responsive, so don't turn it too sharply; just take time to get used to it. The new car has a strong plastic smell inside, so I often open the windows for ventilation. Safety comes first when driving.
I've been driving my new Volkswagen Lavida for three months and realized maintenance is key. Don't delay the first service—follow the manual to change engine oil and filter around 1,500 km to keep the lubrication system clean. Check tire pressure monthly to ensure front-rear balance and reduce wear. Use neutral detergent when washing to prevent paint corrosion. Avoid spraying random chemicals on interiors, and gently wipe screens without water contact. Treat new brake pads gently by minimizing sudden stops to extend lifespan. Regularly inspect battery terminals for tightness, and start the engine for 10 minutes weekly when parked long-term. Paying attention to these details has kept my car in excellent condition.
